Abstract: The present invention relates to lighting strips and more particularly to flexible lighting systems and devices, which are waterproof. The lighting strips are modular and are capable of being physically and electrically connected with one another to provide lighting systems that are waterproof and adaptable to many situations. Included in embodiments of the invention are modular lighting strips comprising: a non-conductive substrate strip comprising an electrical circuit; a plurality of high brightness LEDs operably connected to the electrical circuit; a colloid layer comprising polyurethane resin providing a waterproof coating over the substrate, the circuit, and the LEDs; and a plug at one end and a socket at an opposing end of the substrate which is integrally formed with the strip to provide for waterproof electrical interconnection of two or more circuits or to a power supply.

Abstract: The present invention relates to lighting assemblies and more particularly to light emitting diode (LED) light bulbs comprising a support for one or more LED lenses, which can be used to position and support the lenses within the lamp housing and which facilitate assembly of the light bulbs during manufacturing.

Abstract: The present invention relates to lighting strips and more particularly to modular lighting systems comprising lighting devices, for example, lighting strips, physically and electrically connectable with one another by way of a plug and socket integrally formed at opposing ends of the lighting strips. The lighting strip devices can be made of flexible material to allow for applying the lighting devices along flat as well as contoured surfaces. The lighting strips can also be rigid. More particularly, embodiments of the invention include modular lighting strips comprising: a non-conductive substrate strip comprising an electrical circuit; a plurality of light sources operably connected to the electrical circuit; a plug integrally formed at an end of the substrate strip; and a socket integrally formed at an opposing end of the substrate strip; wherein the plug and socket provide for removable, friction-fit, latch or latchless, and electrical interconnection of two or more circuits.
